host: the nra brought about. guest: they were highly criticized for that press conference a few weeks ago with how their ideas are going forward at the newtown. from the democratic perspective, the fewer guns, the less likely there will be violence and danger in our schools. from the gun control opponents, the issue should be about keeping the schools safer from a person who is mentally unbalanced and barging in with a weapon. there's a controversy about that. you heard president obama speak about this a couple of weeks ago when he laid out his gun-control initiative and talked about providing resource officers for schools and extra security for schools that wanted it. he did not want to force the security or turn the school into a fortress. you want to make it a school but is welcoming and open. on the other hand, the nra people are saying you want to make it harder for someone to come in and one way to do that is to put somebody who is armed in the schools so you don't know if there is someone there who can fir

the nra loves her, which is a more important issue now than it was. she does very well in appealing across the dial. her problem is she has been mentally disabled sister and is very strong in medicare support. it will be more as a surrogate them actually running herself. host: our guest, cameron joseph, had a recent story in "the hill." who are democrats to watch? how are social issues playing into the message? guest: there are two democratic governors who always try to talk about this. gov. cuomo of new york is most likely running. he has been very strong in pushing for gun control. he got it passed almost immediately to the state legislature. in new york, it is still under bipartisan control. republicans are very powerful in the state house there. and martin o'malley in maryland is doing a lot of the same things. o'malley pushed through gay marriage, which was a very big deal. because andrew cuomo has such a strong, powerful media force with the new york, he will be closely watched on the national stage because the new york media is so influential.
